Last record added twice when reading ifstream

Ok, so logically this code seems to make sense but for some reason it
reads the last record twice before hitting eof. Is ifstream.eof()
implementation dependent?

void LoadFile(ifstream &File, List &List)
{
User lUser;
while(!File.eof())
{
File >lUser;
List.insert(lUser,List.nodeCount());
}
}

This is an FAQ (I'd even say one of the most F AQs).
It's answered in the C++ FAQ lite at http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite .
